    Andre Bettelheim argues that natural inequalities, when socially evaluated in terms of superiority or inferiority, can lead to social inequality and discrimination. He discusses Tocqueville's concept of democratic equality, which acknowledges that all individuals are not born equal in abilities or talents. Bettelheim asserts that natural inequalities only become social inequalities when differences are evaluated and judged from a position of influence within society, such as differences in social class or gender.
